Nowadays I drink more tea than coffee. Both black and green. I tasted white tea in a tea house in Cordoba (Spain). I really liked that one.

I love tea. Indians drink a lot of tea. I don't drink too much of the traditional indian tea aka Chai, but I do drink green tea made by a company called Arizona in the US.

It's Arizona Green Tea with ginseng and honey!

Yes, lots of tea!

Green, black, iced (well I'm in a warm climate), and herbal but only if I'm sick.

I'm not into the flavoured ones.

Loose and bagged!

Anybody familiar with "Teavana"?

Re: The Caffeine Thread

yea i've heard of teavana, its a tea store chain in the US right? I mostly drink loose leaf asian and indian tea on the weekends. A cup of tea in the morning doesn't have enough caffeine to wake me on week days. i'm going to go to my local tea shop this weekend, anyone have any suggestions?

Re: The Caffeine Thread

I like minted tea, or at least tea with a mixture of several sweet and spicy tastes... I can't explain it well, maybe someone else can? My only beef with tea is that it can get quite hot after drinking it, because the weather is hot to begin with. That's why I mostly stick to cold drinks...

Re: The Caffeine Thread

I have been drinking a lot of hot water recently. I decided it was the healthiest option.

Re: The Caffeine Thread

Yes, Teavana is a tea store.

You can order just as in Starbucks (or any other coffee shop)

Here's the link to the online store:

I sigh as I post the last photo of our 3 coffeemakers together... The X1 will be back soon ( we hope)

It hurts as much as when you have to leave your car


Best to all and stay caffeineted if you can
